Desert bar cube (have to draft all your lands, no tokens or mechanics that would need dice for counters). 1-1. This was my first time playing a desert cube and it was a great experience. I hope I never have to read the text on Lim-Dul’s Paladin again though.

B cube (every card was approximately a B power level card in its respective format). 2-0. Cool cube, lots of great cards I hadn’t thought about in years.

Legacy cube, 2-1. Deck was pretty weird but very fun. Sadly only got to loop wasteland with w6 once.

I've also added details to the README for how to configure the project/compile the mod yourself for anyone interested in doing so. There's a couple batch files thrown in there to streamline the arduous process of using CMake.

This sounds fairly doable. I’ll have a look if anything similar to this functionality already exists in a mod somewhere. But if not, I can start digging into it after i finish up some other work later this week.

Hope everyone working on 2XKO lands on their feet, they made something really cool. I enjoyed the game but it was difficult to justify playing after the launch layoffs when Riot used every opportunity to signal to players that they did not believe in the game or the team working on it.

woah, adding a character is a pretty nice way of extending an old game without changing the established core that people already like.

Xrd model now uses RL, this isn't a finished training run, and no online RL has been applied yet as i'm still working on the mod setup for that, but i'm very happy with the progress! here's the model playing against itself, i think it's a massive step up from the last footage i posted

Could be a nice way to archive offline tournaments. On each PS4 you'd need to set "Replay Auto Save (Versus)" to ON in system settings and then export the replay save file to a usb drive after the tournament finishes. Then the replays could be collated for PC later.

130

Loj @loj19.bsky.social · 06/06/2026

Turns out it's fairly straight forward to get Xrd replays off a PS4 and running on the PC version. Not sure anyone has tried this before? I was able to get some of my PS4 netplay replays from ~6 years ago working with replay takeover on PC.

Loj @loj19.bsky.social · 06/04/2026

The handling of supers still isn't 100% perfect in the new version; sometimes the animation of the camera is off by a frame so the super looks slightly wrong. But overall it should be a greatly improved experience compared to the camera issues before.

020

Loj @loj19.bsky.social · 06/04/2026

And for reference here is how this looked in prior versions. There were a couple different bugs here, camera state was getting re-used incorrectly when loading states, camera animations were not being updated correctly and character animations in supers were being overridden.

120

Loj @loj19.bsky.social · 06/04/2026

Cinematic supers should no longer cause the camera to fly off randomly into the distance or animate at the wrong rate while fast forwarding. Here's an example of how you can expect it to look now:

Loj @loj19.bsky.social · 03/01/2026

The mod sort of does something like this. It monitors which mode you are in and applies the appropriate changes to the game code when you enter a replay or training mode then reverses those changes again when you leave the mode. You could make arbitrary changes at arbitrary times if you wanted.

000

Loj @loj19.bsky.social · 03/01/2026

Cool, I wasn't aware it was already working on some setups. I've mainly been testing on steam deck and while injecting was possible there using this method with the previous builds, it would consistently crash when trying to enter a replay. This new version addresses that crash.

Loj @loj19.bsky.social · 02/01/2026

Sorry I'm not sure I understand exactly what you mean by this. If you mean altering the Xrd binary so that it loads the dll instead of running the injector each time: I'm sure I can figure out how to do that at some point but it was convenient to just automate the injection for now.

Much of my implementation was made possible by the saving/loading states introduced in the rollback update. Many thanks to you and everyone else who worked on it :)

Loj @loj19.bsky.social · 09/12/2025

This is definitely something I'd like to do at some point. My immediate focus is on fixing crashes/any major bugs people find. But once I'm more confident about the mod's stability I will see what I need to do to make it run on linux.

010

Loj @loj19.bsky.social · 09/12/2025

Thanks, it's fortunate rollback exists as the save/load state functions it uses do a lot of the heavy lifting here. Having to figure out how to restore a game state without it would have taken forever. The UI was surprisingly nice to work with as it seems to be some sort of immediate mode system.

Loj @loj19.bsky.social · 08/12/2025

If you find any crashes/bugs, especially if you can consistently reproduce them, please dm me the details! Either on here, twitter @LoveOfJustice19, or Loj on discord. There's only so much I can test with my own replays so I appreciate any help finding bugs.
